Steve Nelson

A black cloud has come over us, and a black cowboy hat is missing from our home and our hearts.

Steve Nelson left us on Friday, May 5, 2017. As a father, husband, son, grandpa, brother and friend he was one of a kind.

Always generous, funny, strong and curious, Steve loved nothing more than a great conversation-that is, if he liked you. To his daughters Stephanie and Staci he was their first hero, and wore a cape from which even their husbands could sometimes not escape. Trucking was his game and without it, he was never the same.

In South Dakota he was raised, and into Montana he grazed, which may not seem far, and between the two, he built a business and a community that answered his trucker's call. But make no mistake, behind Steve was a woman which allowed him to create...some might even say, Marte made him great.

There are just not enough words to describe the pain in our hearts for losing Steve before his time. So today in writing, is the ending of an amazing man and now all we have are the memories in hand.

This is why we would like you to join us to say goodbye and maybe have a cry as we celebrate Steve, who touched us all so deeply inside, this Friday, May 12, from 4-8 p.m., at The Northern Hotel Grand Ball Room.

As Bella would say, Bye-Bye Steve.
